Computational and experimental investigations into cavity receiver heat loss for solar thermal concentrators
Tubular cavity receivers offer excellent prospects as low-cost, high-efficiency heat collection elements for paraboloidal dish solar-thermal concentrators, as well as for central tower systems. Major heat loss mechanisms for these receivers are convection and radiative emission, as well as reflection and spillage (non-capture). Compared to glazed receivers, convection heat loss can be quite a l...
متن کاملExperimental and Numerical Study on the Thermal Performance of a Water/Steam Cavity Receiver
An experimental platform was designed and built for testing the thermal performance of a water/steam cavity receiver. The experimental platform was utilized to investigate the start-up performance and operation characteristics of the receiver. The electrical heating mode was chosen to simulate the non-uniform distribution of heat flux on the surface of absorber tubes inside the cavity. During s...
متن کاملExperimental Investigations on the Thermal Performance of a Vertical Closed Loop Pulsating Heat Pipe Using Binary Mixture of Fluids
This paper presents the experimental investigations conducted on a vertical closed loop pulsating heat pipe (VCLPHP) to evaluate the thermal performance. The values of thermal resistance and heat transfer coefficient obtained in the experimentation is used as evaluation parameters. The VCLPHP used has capillary tubes having an inner diameter of 2mm and outside diameter 3mm and bent into 5 turns...
متن کاملThermal Performance of a Double-pass Solar Air Heater
This study analyzes the thermal performance of solar thermal energy using double-pass absorber plate in Sanandaj, Iran. To this end, a mathematical model was encoded according to the energy and exergy balance equations and solved by MATLAB software. Given the environmental conditions and radiation intensity of a winter day in Sanandaj, the effects of external parameters such as radiation intens...
متن کاملThe Stability and Thermal Performance of a Small Solar pond
A small salt gradient solar pond with an average surface area of 1.8 m2 and depth of 0.8m has been tested. The depths of storage, gradient and surface zones are 0.3, 0.27 and 0.07m, respectively. The temperature of the storage zone for the summer days reaches its maximum of 65˚ C after about 8 days. Daily variation of the storage zone temperature was about 8˚C which is due to small volume of th...
